Where do plants get each of the raw materials required for photosynthesis?
Answer
The raw materials needed for the process of Photosynthesis are Carbon dioxide, Water, Sunlight and Chlorophyll.
- Carbon dioxide - Plants obtain CO 2 from the atmosphere with the help of stomata present on the surface of the leaves.
- Water - Water is taken up by the roots of the plants through the process of osmosis .
- Sunlight - The energy from the sun falls onto the leaves directly.
- Chlorophyll - This photosynthetic pigment is present in the leaves of plants.
